What's new at Baney Media

Baney Media is proud to announce another prime-time airing this week:  National Geographic Channel's "Lava Hunter", the story of National Geographic magazine photographer Bob Madden's quest for a follow-up to his astounding 1975 magazine cover shot of Kilauea Volcano's lava in action.

In 1974, the lava was flying through the air. This time, Bob will have to hang over, dive under and run from Kilauea's lava as it gushes into the Pacific Ocean in order to get the perfect shot. And to do it, he'll have to get real close.

Produced by Tim Baney of Baney Media for National Geographic Television, airing on the National Geographic Channel this Saturday night at 9:00pm.

Baney Media is pleased to announce an encore showing of “Somali Pirate Takedown - The Real Story” on Tuesday, June 23, 2009 at 9:00pm eastern on the Military Channel. The special, which first aired Sunday night on the Discovery Channel, will be shown with additional never-before-seen footage.

The gripping story behind the headlines - as the crew of the hijacked Maersk Alabama struggles to save its ship, capture a pirate and keep their Captain, Richard Phillips, from being dragged into Somalia.

Through powerful re-creations, newly declassified Navy footage and stunning CGI animation unfolds a story of suspense, valor, and duty - culminating in a very sudden ending, administered by US Navy SEALs.
